Implementing a vision for innovation in government
When Frédéric Genta (MBA 2011) was appointed by HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco to serve as minister for Digital Transformation for the principality in 2018, he knew full well the challenges that lay ahead.
The Prince wanted Genta to position Monaco as the world’s most digital state—a tall order given that, at the time, a United Nations ranking of countries’ digital activity placed Monaco near the bottom. Now in his third year leading Monaco’s digital transformation, Genta is capitalizing on the country’s strengths in pursuit of this vision to further public service and enhance economic prosperity.
IN Groupe has been selected by The Principality of Monaco to help design and secure its digital identity scheme and create new identity documents including biometric passports, electronic ID cards and residence permits.
Natives and residents of Monaco will have the option to generate a digital identity associated with new identity documents, with deployment planned for the first half of 2021. The digital identity will provide access to various state services without the need for additional supporting documents.
